Brittany $25 per hour for 1 child

Hello! I'm Brittany and I have a background in childcare before becoming a licensed physical therapist assistant. My license and work experience have given me the skills needed to be comfortable with elder care, care for adults and children with physical and/or cognitive delays, and more! With 20 years of experience off and on I have cared for multiple kids at once, been a nanny, occasional babysitter, fill-in nanny, you name it! Most of my experience has been with children ages 6mo-5yrs, but all ages are great. If the weather is nice I like to get everyone outside, but games and crafts indoors make for a nice day too! In my free time I enjoy hiking, discovering new restaurants and coffee shops, listening to a podcast, reading a good book and hanging out with my cat, Alfie!

Hi there, my name is Regann. I currently looking for a long term family to work with. I am a certified early childhood educator. I love working with children. I’ve worked with children for 10 years in various different settings . I’ve worked in schools, teaching assistant, nanny, caregiver, and lead at an aftercare. I hope to be able to bring you peace while you are away from your precious children. I’m pretty laid back but know when I need to set rules and boundaries. I do not mind helping out with light house keeping, preparing meals, bedtimes and mornings. I have a vehicle of my own. I’ve worked with children age 6 mos-15 years. I’m happy to hear from you and help with all your childcare needs.

"Johanna is AMAZING! My two boys love her - she does everything from amazing arts & crafts, to helping with homework, to getting them playing outside! She also drives them and does everything involved with after school activities: packing snacks, getting the right gear, etc."

"When we hired Amani, we felt like we hit the jackpot. We were very lucky to find her on UrbanSitter at the beginning of school year. She was picking up kids from school, taking them to afternoon activities, helping them with assignments. She prepped food for them, helped organize their closets and keep their spaces neat and orderly. We would hire her again in a heartbeat."

"Caitlin has been such a lifesaver for our family. We hired Caitlin to help with the after school routine. The kids took to her instantly. She does it all - school pick ups, dinners, baths, lunch making, clean up, etc. She has really helped make a busy time so much easier for us."
